About this listen
Irresistibly drawn to mysteries, if only to debunk them, reporter Lionel Page exposes supernatural frauds, swindlers, and charlatans. His latest case is an obsession—at least for an ancient and wealthy heiress: verify the authenticity of a lost Edgar Allan Poe manuscript circulating through New York City’s literary underworld. But the shrewd Regina Dunkle offers more than money. It’s a pact. Fulfill her request, and Lionel’s own notorious buried past, one he’s been running from since he was a child, will remain hidden.
As Lionel’s quest begins, so do the warnings. And where rare books go, murder follows. It’s only when Lionel meets enigmatic stranger Madison Hannah, his personal usher into the city’s secret history, that he realizes he’s being guided by a force more powerful than logic…and that he isn’t just following a story. He is the story.
Now that the true purpose of his mission is revealing itself in the most terrifying ways, it may finally be time for Lionel to believe in the unbelievable.

Critic reviews
“The writing is vivid and quick, and a romantic subplot sheds light on Lionel’s many dimensions as a protagonist, including his sharp wit. Dark fantasy readers, especially fans of Jim Butcher’s Dresden Files series, will appreciate the complex world-building and layered mythologies. Schaefer is an author to watch for in this genre.”--Booklist

Fairly solid modern fantasy
I generally prefer my fantasy fiction to be of the medieval type, but bought them s on a whim from Bookbub. I added narration for a few pounds more and listened to the whole thing.
The narration by Susannah Jones is great, she manages to do the voices for a dozen or so characters well and makes them all sound distinctive.
The story is ok, with fairly well filled out characters and a plot that moves along at a decent pace.
Nothing fantastic, but I didn't want to stop listening at any point, so it must have been good enough to keep me listening!
Overall, worth a listen, but don't expect too much of it.
